CANTINA
The current management of this rather seedy venue doesn’t much care about appearances, apparently. Nonetheless, it’s become one of the hottest spots in the area, attracting surly alcoholics from all around. A variety of local acts, the vast majority unrelentingly terrible, play here every Tuesday night. Coincidentally, it’s Tuesday night.
A host of unsavory-looking people makes up your audience for the night. They’re all staring at you expectantly.
A fake plastic guitar lies on the ground in front of you.
Bolted to the wall is a television screen, dark and forboding.
>get guitar
You pick up the guitar.
The crowd around you quiets down, an expectant hush settling over the room.
>wait
Time passes.
The screen flickers to life, revealing a grid with five columns and colored circles falling down them. Music begins to blast from the speakers.
A yellow circle slides down the screen.
